Bimbos in Space?

I guess you heard about this. Most people think it was just a stunt and don't like it. I thought about it and decided that this is really a positive story...just not the way most would think. To think we can now put complete idiots into space and bring them back with a very high degree of confidence and safety is showing the real progress is being made in developing space travel. I mean, the hardest part of any flight by any vehicle is the take off and the landing. The flight in-between is usually uneventful. So now we are good enough to take any 5 random morons and fly them into space and back safely. This is a good thing as we couldn't do that before. Imagine Apollo 13 with "those" passengers. It would have been a disaster.



I'm not exactly sure why you assume that success of this one mission means there won't be a catastrophic Apollo 13-type event in the future with a crew 100% incapable of dealing with the simplest of issues. I mean, we had years of successful space shuttle missions. Then we had the Challenger explosion in 1986 and the Columbia explosion in 2003.

It's about PROGRESS, and I'm glad to see it. All the focus on space was hijacked about 30 years ago by the global warming nuts. We were on the doorstep to space and then all the $$ was directed to find (or make) evidence to scare people into swallowing the whole climate change argument. Finally, some rich billionaires made their own space companies and rubbed NASA's nose in the fact that they have done NOTHING in a whole generation to advance space travel. Once again we are seeing private companies do it faster, better and cheaper than NASA. Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way.

Shes not built to my "type" per se...but I would not mind going to space or pretty much anywhere with Katy Perry. Bimbos need lovin' too IMO. I would definitely tell her I was deaf though...bet the farm that she never shuts up.
